Puffy Under Eyes After IPL - England

I had no problem with the first 3 IPL treatments...

28 Nov 2009

I had no problem with the first 3 IPL treatments in fact my skin felt lovely. It was only after the last one that i had a problem with the eye area and my eyes looked sunk which accentuated the puffy area or maybe its the other way round.

I had the treatment for some very slight broken capillaries open pores and general appreanace as i heard it was good to increase collagen production and i've just hit 40.

Hi i've just had my last ipl treatment, 4 in total, and i had no problems until this last one, my undereye area had become very puffy with hollow areas dirctly under my eye but puffy areas around the eye socket. Is this a normal reaction and will it return to normal in time and if so how long? Also i've read on some web sites that ipl can cause permanent fat loss in turn causing skin to sag which frightened the hell out of me. Please could you put my mind at ease if possible. Many thanks
